-Stay with the Vigor Moosoon III its really nice I have it on my i920, ive overclocked to 3.9 w/ my ram at 1500mhz, but it is not neeeded. I have it clocked at 3.2 w/ ram at 1600mhz. idle temps under 35c, load around 45c.
-Asus P6T sounds nice, I have the Rampage extreme2 and love it. Asus is the way to go unless you are a evga fan.
-get whatever graphics card you feel comfortable spending money on, don't let anyone talk you out of getting a ****** card.
-check the usuable ram on the motherboard. I had the a Asus x48 motherboard and OCZ memory would not run correctly. This time around I got the best. Corsair works great with the new generation Asus boards.
- I have the Cosmos S case. its nice, i had to take out the fan on the side to fit the CPU cooler in. ITS REALLY BIG. I realized even with a large graphics card you don't need a Full Tower unless you plan on
A) Watercooling
B) running more than 5 Hard drives/2 optical drives, etc...
-I would look..this looks nice. NEW antec 900 2

You wont need two optical drives. Just get the blu ray if you plan on watching blu rays on it.
power supply is one of the best.
